MSI-8000
Operator’s Manual
1.7 Getting Started
The
MSI-8000
is usually shipped along with a compatible sensor unit such as an
MSI-7300
Dyna-Link 2
, or one of MSI’s advanced Crane Scales. MSI always ships these systems
pre-configured. If the
MSI-8000
is purchased separately, or is to be used with a different
system, then the RF Transceivers will have to be mated. Follow the RF Setup Procedure in
Section 5.1.
Fully charge the battery by plugging the charger into the Charge Port. Depending on the
discharge level of the battery this can take up to 6 hours.
Once the RF Setup is complete for the
MSI-8000
, the system will instantly connect with
the Scale / Dyna-Link. It is advised to do a site survey to identify operating range and
usability of the RF Link. The easiest way to accomplish this is to position the Scale /
Dyna-Link at an average operational height, and then try the link at various positions and
distances. Range may vary by the rotation of the Scale / Dyna-Link. The RF Transceivers
used in the
MSI-8000
are capable of much further range than the 100’ typical spec, but
range is dependent on site and installation variables.
